Question

how do graph this equation: (x+3)^2=10(y-1)

Answer 1

\[ \begin{array}l\color{red}{\text{W}}\color{blue}{\text{E}}\color{red}{\text{L}}\color{blue}{\text{C}}\color{red}{\text{O}}\color{blue}{\text{M}}\color{blue}{\text{E}}\color{red}{\text{ }}\color{blue}{\text{T}}\color{red}{\text{O}}\color{blue}{\text{ }}\color{red}{\text{O}}\color{blue}{\text{P}}\color{blue}{\text{E}}\color{red}{\text{N}}\color{blue}{\text{S}}\color{red}{\text{T}}\color{blue}{\text{U}}\color{red}{\text{D}}\color{blue}{\text{Y}}\color{blue}{\text{!}}\color{red}{\text{ }}\color{blue}{\text{}}\end{array} \]

Answer 2

FIrst, you want to simplify the equation.

Answer 3

I don't know how to do that.

Answer 4

Okay, it's easy! \[(x+3)^2=10(y-1)\]

Multiple 10 by y and - 1

Then put x to the 2nd power and put 3 to the 2nd power.

Answer 5

So x^2+9=10y-10?

Answer 6

Correct!
Now tell me a bit about the lesson. Are you studying linear graphs or parabolas?

Answer 7

Awesome! I am studying "Conic Sections". That is the name of the lesson.

Answer 8

Okay, the equation graphed looks something like this. (Forgive my bad drawing. Lol)
